KomicsKast 133: Marvel Month by Month November 1962 – Part 1

KK_133Dynamic David Fiore and I discuss not one but TWO issues of Marvel Comics cover dated November 1962! The Incredible Hulk #4 and Tales to Astonish #37. We laugh, we cry (well, not so much actually) we say “HUH?” a lot and in general just have a whole lot of fun talking about these comics. We hope you’ll read them too and join in with us on the discussion!

As always, you can find more info on these issues at:
